Codex Carolinus

Codex Carolinus is an uncial manuscript of the New Testament on parchment, dated to the 6th or 7th century.

The Gothic text is designated by siglum Car, the Latin text is designated by siglum gue (traditional system) or by 79 (on the list of Beuron), it represents the Old Latin translation of the New Testament.

[1] It is housed in the Herzog August Library in Wolfenbüttel in Lower Saxony, Germany.

The nomina sacra are used both in Gothic and Latin texts (ihm and ihu for "Iesum" and "Iesu").

In the 12th or 13th century four of its leaves were used as material for another book and they were overwritten by Latin text.

[8] The manuscript became known to the scholars in the half of the 18th century, where it was found in the Ducal Library of Wolfenbüttel.

[10] F. A. Knittel deciphered Gothic-Latin text of the Codex Carolinus and published it in 1762 at Brunswick.

[12] In his edition all abbreviated forms, Gothic and Latin, are written in full.
